Best Practices for Staying Safe When Gambling

[Subbir]

A strategy plan for gambling will help you understand the rules and mechanics of the game as well as your conditions and motivation to proceed. You should think about how you can change the rules or use different methods to change your chances of winning. Also accounts are constantly being hacked and account recovery is becoming difficult. I think for gambling if we do not check the security of the accounts before starting the game and use the 2fa code then the accounts are safe and there will be no big risk of losing money. 2FA is essential to web security because it immediately neutralizes the risks associated with compromised passwords also before sharing any information on gambling sites check whether it is secure.

What is also important to do is use the device that you own and that only you operate. do not access using publicly available rental devices. or even borrow a friend's. 2FA really helps secure our casino accounts. Many gamblers use it for layered security on their accounts so they are not easily compromised.

and most importantly, you can get used to not leaving assets in the casino. So after winning or playing, just withdraw the rest and deposit again if you really want to play. Don't think too much about costs, your assets are worth more than the small costs you incur.

Just don’t deposit more than you are comfortable with losing. Let’s say you deposited $100 on a casino, you should forget about that money because one way or another you will probably lose that money. 95 out of 100 times, you will lose it playing but sometimes other unlucky stuff happen too. The casino may demand KYC on you, your acc may get hacked (small chance if you got 2FA) but the worst of all, the whole casino may get hacked and then even 2FA won’t save you. So don’t feel too cocky just because you enabled 2FA on your account. A site-wide hack is still possible. Now read the first sentence of my post and it will make more sense.

I would say that keeping these things always in mind helps us to avoid big losses and hacking incidents. Now, it is up to us how we manage ourselves to keep those practices and live that way because it makes no sense if we don't even though we know it already. The sad truth is that most of us just realize that we are wrong after making mistakes, we never thought it first before making a decision. A reason why many gamblers suffered first which in fact, we can anticipate that situation since some gamblers already warned us.

I have experience like that, never leave any funds in the casino as much as possible to pull even though some crypto does not look valuable in your eyes, I once left several dogecoin when the price is still dozens of satoshi but after seeing the price soared I returned to the casino but the account and funds I was frozen. I think it is a valuable experience for me and I remind this so that people don't do it.

We will never know the price of crypto in the future so whatever value, you should withdraw all the funds if you want to leave the casino but if you still want to play just a little fund to play later, at least take and withdraw all the funds of the victory, because it could be one day later The price of crypto rose drastically as an example of Dogecoin.

The easiest way to avoid all the nonsense from crappy online casinos is to follow the steps of others on this forum, avoid all online casinos that are not on this forum, use stake.com, Roobet, and other popular casinos on this forum and you will be fine, there will be less craps from casinos and you will have a good experience gambling online, most newbie oy learn after they use some random online casinos they found while surfing the internet, do not be like them.

Also, make sure you send the exact amount you are prepared to lose into any online casino's account, there are a few reasons why this is important, some people turn addicted this way because they believe they have a lot of money but they are not ready to lose it all, once they use the whole balance to gamble they will have no choice but to try chasing their losses which will eventually leads to more losses.

From this point on, they will start engaging into things they aren't used to before, like borrowing money from friends and people around them, promising to pay them back sooner, and if they lose such money that's where problems will evolve, they will start sneaking around with debts.

This is the place to share the best ways to stay safe while gambling

That is a great summary of what many users here on the forum consider a safe way for gambling. Staying safe while gambling online is a very different to visiting a physical casino. Online we only face virtual threats and it's all about protecting our personal information and our money, wherease in a physical casino we also need to worry about physical threats and that is why I never visit my local casino alone. Going with friends to visit your hometown casino makes it more fun and also offers some protection. Especially after a bigger win I woulld be afraid to get robbed on my way home. While gambling online it's all about our money and not losing access to it or making it too easy for other people to steal it. Having a secure wallet where we transfer in all bigger wins is mandetory. In general I would always be cautious when it comes to money and try to use several layers of security to not risk too much at once.

Best practices

• Setting a loss limit

In this case it felt difficult for me to do in the past, sometimes defeat made me upset and I kept trying without realizing that my finances were bad,
but for now I can control my finances to play the game. and it is true that by setting a loss limit we can control our finances so that they are not completely drained by gambling

This is normal because we often take small things that may not seem important to us for granted. Even though when we think about it, it is something we really have to do to avoid major losses and hacking incidents. We also have to be responsible with our gambling so that we don't experience the bad things that have happened to many gamblers so we don't have to experience them. And don't forget to always check the security of your account and always use the money you can afford to gamble so that you don't lose too much. Don't forget to activate 2FA on all your gambling accounts on casino sites to avoid hacking.

[Outhue]

There is a mistake that some people make when they want to gamble at a casino, they plan to risk $30 for example and they go ahead and make a larger deposit, why a larger deposit when you aren't ready to lose all that money?

Even if you have $30 to risk in mind, since your Bankroll is more than $30 you will end up using more money to gamble, you can't make plans in mind, the mind is different from being disciplined, being disciplined leads to the right actions.

If $30 is all you can right then deposit only that amount on the casino, if you lose all that money it's better, you can feel bitter but that's for the day or week, you should be able to easily shut down your computer and walk away, but if you have a larger bankroll waiting in your balance, you will be easily tempt to use more money to gamble on that same day.

And remember - Have fun and gamble safely

Just noticed this, although this is a good words but adding responsibly might be much better

The easiest way to avoid all the nonsense from crappy online casinos is to follow the steps of others on this forum, avoid all online casinos that are not on this forum, use stake.com, Roobet, and other popular casinos on this forum and you will be fine, there will be less craps from casinos and you will have a good experience gambling online, most newbie oy learn after they use some random online casinos they found while surfing the internet, do not be like them.

That is being biased, IMO.  The forum is just a small place of the vast world out there.  Saying that the only reputable casinos are those that have an announcement here in the forum is somehow wrong.  Besides there are many bigger casinos that are not involved here in the forum so we might be missing out on something if we just keep our attention in this forum.

Also, make sure you send the exact amount you are prepared to lose into any online casino's account, there are a few reasons why this is important, some people turn addicted this way because they believe they have a lot of money but they are not ready to lose it all, once they use the whole balance to gamble they will have no choice but to try chasing their losses which will eventually leads to more losses.

I agree, sending an amount we can afford to lose prevent us to spend more in case we lost our bankroll, we also just keep ourselves on the boundaries and don't step out of it since it can affect our financial capabilit negatively.

From this point on, they will start engaging into things they aren't used to before, like borrowing money from friends and people around them, promising to pay them back sooner, and if they lose such money that's where problems will evolve, they will start sneaking around with debts.

True, there are lots of gamblers who borrow money because they are hooked to the gambling games they are playing.  They wanted to chase losses by borrowing money which eventually may be lost and make that person left with huge debt that he is unable to pay.

You're absolutely right! Thank you for the suggestion, it is now updated thanks to you

For some people who does not have any knowledge nor experience to where they can start gambling using cryptocurrency, I think the idea of playing in online casinos that was being promoted here in the forum would be enough and better. I agree that there are some other platform that they can discover online gambling, but for users who go in here, that's the best choice.

Also, make sure you send the exact amount you are prepared to lose into any online casino's account, there are a few reasons why this is important, some people turn addicted this way because they believe they have a lot of money but they are not ready to lose it all, once they use the whole balance to gamble they will have no choice but to try chasing their losses which will eventually leads to more losses.

To make it short, set up a budget plan that is supposed to spend on gambling. Dont't overspend, don't be greedy and of course, don't be impatient.

From this point on, they will start engaging into things they aren't used to before, like borrowing money from friends and people around them, promising to pay them back sooner, and if they lose such money that's where problems will evolve, they will start sneaking around with debts.

Most of them actually, the effect of gambling really hit them that they will do everything just to continue playing. I have encounter lots of them, they will borrow money and saying that they will use it on a different purpose, but in the end, you will know that they already burned the money in gambling.

I like 2FA, it adds another layer of protection. There are some gambling sites that do not require KYC, people should know that losing the 2FA backup can lead to loss of their gambling site account that they enable it. But it helps against hackers.

That's true... Sometimes, I feel really scared of running the 2FA security backup for this same reasons too...I feel passphrases are much more comfortable and you've got nothing much to worry about...or atleast for the fact that alot of P2P platforms that have appreciated the 2FA security setup require alot more than said.
I believe alot have been influenced positively from this topics and, I can say - the compilation is outrightly a good reference for 'em newbies...

I always agree and currently doing of setting loss limit in every game/session i'm on. As well as on win limit. Soon i reached one of these two, i stopped playing and end that session then will do it later on again, the same strategy and decision.

Also the 2fa, if i remember correctly no casinos as of today are requiring 2fa as mandatory. It should be an add-on feature to required all its users soon as they go their first deposit for security purposes

Speaking about limitations then expect that lots of people would really be failing on doing on this one considering on how gambling becomes big then we could really say that majority is really failing
about being safe because of having no limitation and simply busting up themselves on the end and this is something very normal on gambling industry. Limits is something that could only happen on the time that you had lost it all or on when you dont have money on your pocket for  you to make use for you to play. Safe? You wont really be minding yourself at least if you do know
about your limitation. Play according into your budget or extra money and dont go beyond those lines.

Common mistake for some people is that they do really mold up those wrong assumptions which we know that it cant really be just that possible
via gambling and this is something that you would really be that should be minding in the first place.

Much as this is a good idea to do, I don't do this when I gamble. That's because I know myself, and when I do something that I genuinely enjoy and that there's money to make out of it, I will simply just get obsessed over it to the point that I would probably do something shitty and I don't want to find out what that shitty thing is, that's why I only gamble when I know I don't have any other disposable money to replenish my gambling money.

My contribution to this topic is for gamblers to be disciplined and they won't have problem of addiction. Every individual that wants to become a gambler should understand that gambling isn't to be used as the main source of income but as an activity to use for entertainment purpose only. You can make profits when you're lucky but you shouldn't think you'll always make profits or that'll make you to become an addicted gamblers that'll be chasing after losses.

For the security measures, I'll say we shouldn't open multiple accounts as that'll get our account suspended because when the casino will request for KYC we won't be able to provide them and read the terms and conditions before using any casino to know if using VPN is allowed.

Maybe that's the limit you set in gambling so you try to always stay within that limit. Well, that's good because each gambler can apply their limits to avoid bad things that can arise after they gamble.

And if you can win from gambling games, maybe you can try to stop and immediately close the browser if you are playing at an online casino. This is to avoid the desire to gamble again so that you can do other things that divert your attention from gambling.

Of the various limits we have implemented, we will always try not to exceed the limits. And if one day we accidentally cross the line, we can remember that we have violated it and must immediately leave the casino before things get bad.

Yes, it is important to limit your budget, let alone limit your loss or winning limit so that you know when to stop gambling and when to gamble. Usually, if we are consistent with this method, we will definitely avoid addiction because if you are addicted, it will be difficult to stop it as stated. We know that there are many gamblers who are addicts out there who find it difficult to stop.

Several large casinos have advised every user to activate 2FA because it is important to provide security for users, especially those who have large funds in the casino, even though basically the casino imposes responsibility on its respective users, this does not mean that the casino is free from responsibility, they will continue to remind their users of that. . because 2FA is very important
